Description It’s not easy being a SeaWolf. Or, rather, a Scurvey Dog. But, since the people here on the land seem ta’ have a dislikin’ fer my kind, so long as I have some group that can tolerate me, I prefer ta’ be wit’ them, even if it’s out in the open ocean.

I was lucky ta’ stumble a’cross Angela when I did. Such a sweet lass. She took care o’ this old dog fer a good long while, until I was strong enough ta’ take care o’ her. She’s the one who gave me my bandana even. Only a werewolf can be man enough ta’ wear a pink bandana, lemme tell you.

Anywho, we’re right misfits, she and I. She bein’ one o’ the winged folk, and meself bein’ a werewolf. Not that anyone’s seen my human face fer a long time. I prefer ta’ keep it that way, honestly. People have more re’spect fer the fang and claw than they do fer the fist.

Regardless, I’ll stay this way, ‘til I’ve found a cure fer my… don’t want ta’ call it a curse. Or even an illness. Maybe, it’s a handicap,starting from birth. Whatever it’s ta’ be called, I’ll write down what knowledge on it I can find here in my book. This new captain myself and Angela are under, Mr. Levi Athens, he seems ta’ be the sort ta’ like misfits like us. Hopefully I’ll be able ta’ find some new bits o’ information while under his command.

Come on, Sea. Throw this dog a bone.

I loved Wolfsjal's Domhnal too much to resist making an irish wolf myself.

Sorry I've been gone so much guys. I've been sick as a dog. So... have some old art I haven't posted. Both his parents carried recessive faelad werewolf genes, but they didn't manifest until he was an adult. Poor Puppy.

Also... this turned out more orange than brown on come monitors. But it's supposed to be brown.

You have a talent for furries, particularly anthro wolves. Instead of giving us half-human half-animal figures, you give us figures which fully blend both the human and the animal into one being. I especially like your gift with furry facial expressions, something many artists have trouble with.

Thank you very much! A lot of my friends and I like to make nice blends like this.. and thank you again! I'm lucky critters have ears like they do. They help a lot.

Did you write this?! That's an awesome story excerpt. Please continue! Anatomically spectacular. I never understood this, but what is the significance/use for the leg wraps. They add character, yes. But why?

Nashoba-Hostina In reply to sadariuswolf [2007-11-08 00:42:58 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I did! I love to write, though i don't hae time for storywriteing, I'm afraid. Sp, I write little snippets with my pieces and let it be that mostly.

Also, as for the leg wraps, technically, such things would be fighting bandages, which don't make sense, because they actually restrict movement. In my werewolf's case, they're strips of cloth that he can wrap and unwrap, just to use as normal bandages when he or a crewmate is hurt.

I'm glad, if an artist at least has fun with their art it is reflected. It means so much more of your art will be great. With that I look forward to your next work.

Love his glasses. You don't see many werewolves with glasses around.

And the pink bandana rocks, especially the bit in the test about it.

This is a good drawing, but he doesn't really seem to fit the hardened speaker in the description. Maybe this is him younger...?

You did an excellent job anatomically as usual, though. Never fails to impress me.

Nice drawing, although it seems a bit half-way house between a wereflooph and one of your more serious drawings: he looks too cute to be taken seriously, but not as cute as a wereflooph.

Still, pretty cool.
